Abstract Understanding the fracture patterns of hydrocarbon reservoirs is vital in Zagros area southwest Iran as they are strongly affected by collision Arabian and Iranian plates. It essential to evaluate both primary secondary (fracture) porosity permeability understand fluid dynamics reservoirs. In this study, we adopted an integrated workflow assess influence various sets on heterogeneous c...

The purpose of this study was to develop a model for the estimation of rock mass classification of Sarvak limestone in the Bakhtiari dam site, south-west (SW) Iran. Q system had been used as the starting point for the rock mass classification. This method was modified for sedimentary rock mass which is known as Qsrm. Because Qsrm considers a wide range of rock mass propert...

the narrow operating window between pore pressure and fracture pressure makes drilling difficult in some operations. a feasibility study of managed pressure drilling (mpd) is carried out on iran darquain oil field. the previous wells drilled in this field showed that mud returns were lost during drilling gadvan formation. the present work addresses this problem by means of surface back pressure...
